Why do you wish to be an Eagan Funfest Ambassador?

I am very proud of the city I live in.  It’s a big city with a small feel. I feel being an ambassador will let me see and experience many things. I could also bring many things to the program.

My favorite Eagan attractions are going to parks with my family and friends.  Hiking with my dog and going to Schultz beach in the summer.

Candidate Information:

Active in school sports such as basketball, soccer and track.  Involved in choir.  Also, volunteer at the Minnesota Zoo during the summer.
